Configuring 1-to-1 Remote Copy
NOTE:
HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software requires an HP 3PAR Remote Copy license. For more
information about the license, see the HP 3PAR OS Concepts Guide.
A 1-to-1 Remote Copy relationship involves two systems. Depending on how the 1-to-1 Remote
Copy relationship is configured, one system can serve as the primary (source) system and the other
the backup system (unidirectional), or both systems can serve as both the primary and backup
systems (bidirectional).
NOTE:
In order to configure 1-to-1 Remote Copy, you must have two available systems with
configured Remote Copy ports.
To configure 1-to-1 Remote Copy:
1.
In the Manager Pane, select Remote Copy.
2.
In the Common Actions panel, click New Configuration. The New Remote Copy Configuration
wizard appears.
Targets

Under Select a Configuration, select 1-1.

Under Assign a System to Each Target, select a storage system graphic. In the menu list, select
a storage system to assign. Repeat for the other storage system graphic.
NOTE:
Only available systems, which satisfy requirements appear. See the HP 3PAR Remote
Copy Software User's Guide for more information.
If you attempt to create a remote copy link between an encrypted storage system and a
non-encrypted system, a warning dialog appears indicating data copied to the non-encrypted
system will no longer be protected by encryption. Click Yes to create the link, or click No to
return to the Targets screen with the newly selected storage system reset.
3.
(Optional) Under Label Location, enter a location for each storage server, for example, Lab
1, New York.
4.
(Optional) Under Name the Target Systems, the Target Name fields are automatically populated
with the storage server names. You can enter an alternate name if you want.
5.
If both assigned systems are running supported HP 3PAR OS, the checkbox to Create additional
targets for simultaneous synchronous and periodic operations is enabled.
When Additional Targets for Multimode is selected, an additional target pair is presented
with the default target name of system followed by _1 and _2. You can change the target
name as desired, and the system performs a validation to confirm target names on the same
system are unique.
